Reviews for Simon
1 - 5 (sorted by rotten rating)
If you go to the movies to ogle topless young women, Simon is definitely for you. If, on the other hand, you want something more cerebral with your $10 ticket and overpriced snacks, stay clear of this Dutch melodrama.

The story of an unusual friendship, Simon tackles weighty social issues with quiet intelligence and low-key charm.

Top CriticSimultaneously genuinely funny and uncompromisingly serious.

Eddy Terstall's film is bipolar and ultimately wrenching, but it works if you let it.
